Driving
GS450h_300h_OM_OM30D53E_(EE)
Raindrop sensor (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
If AUTO mode is selected while the power switch is in ON mode, the wip-
ers will operate once to show that AUTO mode is activated.
If the temperature of the raindrop sensor is 85°C (185°F) or higher, or -
30°C (-22°F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case,
operate the wipers in any mode other than AUTO mode.
When the windshield wipers are in temporary operation
AUTO mode cannot be activated even if is pressed.
If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
The raindrop sensor judges the amount
of raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may not
operate properly when sunlight from
the rising or setting of the sun intermit-
tently strikes the windshield, or if bugs
etc. are present on the windshield.
CAUTION
Caution regarding the use of windshield wipers in AUTO mode
The windshield wipers may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched
or the windshield is subject to vibration in AUTO mode. Take care that
your fingers or anything else do not become caught in the windshield wip-
ers.
Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer fluid until the windshield becomes
warm. The fluid may freeze on the windshield and cause low visibility.
This may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
